The club was founded in 1952, under the name "Beirut" for Syrian-Lebanese traders. Among them are Augusto Hidalgo de Lima, Foch Jardim, Roberto Sanches Mubárac, Lourival Pinho, Pereira de Lima, Goldwasser Pereira Santos, Sílvio Ferrante, Mário D'Avila Maciel, Rufino Farias Vieira, Fernando Andrade Pessoa, among others.

Several other families had an important passage and that are parts of the club's history, such as Diógenes, Pinho, Ribeiro, Frota, and Patriota.

With great values, Atlético Acreano began to dominate the Segundo Distrito. The passion that the blue and white team caused, soon received the slogan "Glória de um Povo, orgulho de Uma Cidade". (The glory of a people, proud of a city).
